A New Mission Appears / Gyutaro's Emergency Rescue
When Kamihito Ichi opened his eyes, three words appeared on his eyeballs as well.
It was a character exactly the same as the one used by Imamura, with no difference whatsoever.
"Upper Rank, land."
Two Upper Rank Six suddenly appeared before the Scribe!
Chapter 397 New Mission Appears
Looking at the two ghosts in front of him, the Scribe sighed helplessly.
He never imagined that after he changed the fate of Gyutaro and Koume, there would still be two Upper Rank Six.
It can only be said that some things are predetermined invisibly.
Moreover, it seems that Imamura and Kamihito Ichi are merely subordinates of that guy Dichai.
What is Dichai? Is it the third Upper Rank Six, or something else?
Things were getting increasingly out of the Scribe's control.
Fortunately, he realized long ago that the memories in his mind were not omnipotent.
More often than not, he simply uses it as a reference.
He firmly believes that his own strength is the only true measure of success.
Even the system I received when I came into this world might malfunction at times.
"To be honest, it's been a long time since I've received a mission."
Just as the Scribe was thinking this, the system's voice rang in his mind after a long absence.
"Beep beep beep, a huge deviation has been detected in the world's trajectory."
"To maintain world peace, a hidden mission is hereby issued."
Mission: Eliminate Dichai.
"Task progress: 0/108".
His lips twitched violently. He hadn't expected that a new task would come to him so soon after he started thinking about the system.
Judging from the mission description, the entire storyline has indeed taken a significant detour.
He could understand the mission of eliminating a certain ghost.
However, what exactly is this 108?
Is this a group brawl of heroes, or a multi-shadow clone tactic?
Just then, a notification sound suddenly rang in my mind again.
Task progress: 0/109
Even the Scribe was taken aback when he received this information.
This so-called task progress is actually quite easy to understand.
If the first part represents the number you killed, the second part represents the total number of mission objectives.
In other words, Dichai might have over a hundred lives!?
It will continue to increase in some unknown way!
Considering that Imamura and Kamihito Ichi were merely his subordinates, the consequences were terrifying.
Dichai might be a demon with over a hundred lives and strength surpassing Upper Rank Six!
When the Scribe deduced this answer in his mind, his heart sank.
If that's really the case, then the seemingly ordinary Dichai not far away is now several levels more dangerous.
Especially now, I don't know the other party's capabilities.
The enemy is in the dark while we are in the light; this situation is even more disadvantageous to us.
But then Scribe thought about it again and realized it wasn't a big deal.
If Dichai is really as I suspect, then she doesn't need to stay here trying to win me over.
Putting everything else aside, just by Rank-Swap Blood Battle, he is enough to look down on 99% of the ghosts.
This shows that the other party is not as I suspected.
Or rather, his abilities have weaknesses that cannot be detected by others.
On the other side, seeing that the Scribe hadn't said anything but his expression had changed, Imamura assumed that the scribe was scared.
"Hahaha, scared now?"
A sound like metal scraping against metal came from behind, Imamura spoke brazenly.
"After I break your arms and legs, I will let you watch how you are eaten up by me step by step."
After saying that, he stopped Kamihito Ichi.
"Stop him, I can handle it alone."
"I don't think that will work."
Shaking his head, Kamihito Ichi unusually refrained from mocking Imamura.
His expression was solemn as he stared intently at the Scribe.
"Do you remember what he just said?"
"Words? What words? The kind that look down on people?"
Nodding, Kamihito Ichi gripped the fan in his hand tightly.
"That's probably not just a matter of us underestimating those little guys."
Even if you become a ghost, your brain will still work perfectly.
Interrupting Kamihito Ichi, the Scribe spoke up.
"You all underestimated me."
With a crisp sound, the Nichirin Blade was drawn.
While the Scribe was preparing to fight Imura and Imamura, outside in the red- Kamihito Ichi Entertainment District, Koinatsu was leading two girls through a dark alley.
These two girls were the same two who were with her when she was harassed in the Entertainment District.
One Karin, and the other is named Cui.
"Karin, Cui, you two listen carefully. You must stay close to me, understand?"
While looking around, Koinatsu didn't forget to remind the two girls.
"No matter what happens or what you see, don't leave my side."
"Knew."
The two girls nodded obediently, but a hint of doubt still flashed in their eyes.
They had no idea why their revered Oiran would leave them behind a letter and a large wad of cash, and then take them away with her tonight.
Not only did he change into casual clothes, but his words were also full of anxiety.
"Oiran, why are we leaving Toki-ya?"
Unable to contain herself any longer, Karin finally asked.
"Could it be that you're going to withdraw your entire body?"
"How could that be?"
Cui, who was standing to the side, quickly waved her hand and explained on behalf of Koinatsu.
"The money left by the Oiran was enough to buy several houses, how could she have taken it all?"
"In my opinion, the Oiran must have done something else."
Koinatsu patted Karin and Cui's heads without saying anything, only managing a weak smile.
She knew that even if she explained it to them, the two girls wouldn't understand in a short time.
After all, even I, at the time, took a long time to accept the existence of ghosts, which are beyond the reach of ordinary people.
As for withdrawing the full amount, that's even more impossible for me.
In a sense, he was placed in the Toki-ya, which not only had no debts, but also provided him with regular financial support from Tsukishiki Pharmaceuticals.
Of course, she wouldn't say these things.
"Let's go, this way."
She waved her hand, signaling the two people to follow her.
Just as the three were running and about to pass through the alley, a figure suddenly appeared at the corner.
"Eh, are you... Koika, the Koinatsu Oiran the Toki-ya?"
Upon seeing the figure not far away, the sharp-eyed Cui immediately recognized the other person's identity.
"Ah, it's Mrs. Mitsu."
As she spoke, she didn't forget to greet the other person.
Just as Cui was about to walk over, Koinatsu grabbed her arm.
"The Oiran?"
Looking up, Cui was surprised to find that Koinatsu's face had turned deathly pale.
"What's wrong, Oiran? That's Mitsu, the proprietress of Kyogoku House. Don't you recognize her?"
"Yes, I am Mitsu. What's wrong with Koika, the Koinatsu Oiran?"
With a smile, Mitsu walked towards the three of them.
"You look like you're not feeling well. Do you need me to take a look?"
Biting her lip, Koinatsu watched Mitsu approach, a hint of panic flashing in her eyes.
She clearly remembered that the Scribe had explicitly mentioned it in the letter he left her.
If you encounter Mitsu, don't hesitate, just run away.
The other party might be a ghost!
Chapter 398 Gyutaro's Emergency Rescue
Her breathing became rapid, and Koinatsu's mind raced as she searched for a solution.
Right now, she has two choices.
First, leave Karin and Cui here and run away.
Second, he ran away with Karin and Cui.
Choosing the first option increases your chances of survival.
After all, the Scribe only mentioned it in the letter, not that he was 100% certain whether the other party was a ghost.
Choosing the second option might require a bit of luck.
If Mitsu really is a ghost, then his fate if he stays is predictable.
The choice is between the former, living for oneself, or the latter, taking a gamble.
Currently, this has become the biggest problem troubling Koinatsu.
"Oiran, are you really feeling unwell?"
After glancing at Mitsu, who was walking towards Mitsu three of them, Karin looked up at Koinatsu again.
Upon noticing the other person's pale face, she quickly expressed her concern.
"How about we ask Mrs. Mitsu to take a look?"
"No."
